Taste…Inspired by my sister-in-law, Stephanie, to drink before bed as an Indian, evening elixir. She calls it Golden Milk, and I, so enchanted by the relaxing dusk potion, created a sweet 45% cacao dark milk chocolate with the warm, musky, and slightly bitter aromas of turmeric, fenugreek, cardamom, ginger and nutmeg. A bite of black pepper is added, increasing the bioavailability of the turmeric potency, curcumin. The experience is completed with a crunch of Sri Lankan coconut. Be well.

"The truth is, I wanted to use Marcona almonds, but the best Marcona almonds are fried and slabbed in oil. Oil and chocolate do NOT mix. So I found an alternate smoked almond and added sea salt. The smoky note sort of emulates the fried taste. Little did I know I would develop the cult following…chocolate + salt."

All natural fruitwood-smoked bacon is baked in small batches before we hand chop it into fine nibbles. Alderwood smoked salt exudes a campfire aroma and perfectly offsets the sweetness of the chocolate. Welcome to the bacon revolution.

"I began experimenting with bacon + chocolate at the tender age of 6, while eating chocolate chip pancakes drenched in Aunt Jemima® syrup, as children often do. Beside my chocolate-laden cakes laid three strips of sizzlin' bacon, just barely touching a sweet pool of maple syrup. And then, the magic—just a bite of the bacon was too salty and I yearned for the sweet kiss of chocolate and syrup, so I combined the two. In retrospect, perhaps this was a turning point; for on that plate something magical happened, the beginnings of a combination so ethereal and delicious that it would haunt my thoughts until I found the medium to express it—chocolate.

From there, it was just a matter of time…and what began as a love of salt and sweet quickly unraveled into an obsession. No sooner could I wait to unveil the royal coupling in solid bar form, a deep milk chocolate with bits and pieces of hickory smoked uncured bacon and just a sprinkling of Alderwood smoked salt. Really, what doesn't taste better with bacon?" –Katrina
